Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!! This is one of my most favorite days of the year and so to celebrate, we hosted our 2nd annual neighborhood Valentine's party. It is always so much fun to get together with friends and eat, mingle, and play some games. I wish I would have gotten more pictures of "couples charades" game we played....especially the opening act by Doug and Rachel...but I didn't capture the moment...for this game we had a bag of random objects (socks, hammer, scissors, baby rattle, etc.) that the couple had to choose from. After they had their object, they picked a (romantic) charade to act out, somehow using the object as a prop. Well Doug and Rach picked a banana for their object and "make-out" was their charade...so just use your imagination to how the prop was used and it was a good one! Got us all laughing right off the bat:0 Anyway, basically all the pictures that I have are of the attendees...
Jacob and Katie
Rob and Shelia
Travis and Stephanie
Doug and Rachel
Matt and Emily
Brad and Jen (just wouldn't be a party without the Phillip's:)
Mark and Katie
Sean and Kendra
Dan and Andrea
Bron and Megan
Scott and Heather
And mine and David's picture isn't on here because it was too ugly for the blog:)
The next pictures are of some of the presents people got (this year everyone brought a prize to give out and it was fun to see what people came up with!)
Jen opening up a Mr. Big candy bar and a few other things I won't mention to keep this family friendly:)

Me holding up my pillow with a pocket to put love notes in (or a pregnancy test...which is what mine came with...won't be needing that for a while!)
A cute romantic basket..
Some edible lace...
New kind of sexy lingerie? hmmm...
Chocolate body paint..
Thanks everyone for coming! I'm already planning what things to do for next year!

Such a fun party! Sorry I was slacking on my camera that night! I'm sad I didn't capture the "Doug/Rachel" scandal :) No need to email the pics, I'll just steal them off this post. Thanks!

Not fair that you didn't put your picture up. You know I don't look great. I think you should still have to put it up. They party was awesome. Thanks.
